Synopsis by Jinko Labitag

In 2004, a number of little girls were kidnapped and murdered in the Nilgiris district, causing mass hysteria. Somehow, the blame was pinned on a North Indian woman named Jyothi, who was then killed in a police shootout. Fifteen years later, Petition Pethuraj (K. Bhagyaraj) fights to have the case reopened. He asks his daughter Venba (Jyotika), a rookie lawyer, to take it on despite it being solved in the eyes of the townspeople. Venba agrees and fights in court despite the hostility she receives from the locals. Soon enough, she discovers the truth. Directed by J.J. Fredrick.
